The Free Character Boost Dilemma

So apparently “dilemma” has two m’s in it, I can’t believe I’ve gone my whole life so far without typing or writing “dilemma” before. Well, I suppose I might have wrote it but spelt it wrong.

So I’m in a bit of a pickle, the level 90 boosts have come and I am completely unprepared. I have no idea what to boost. Here’s my current roster.

Not sure why I bothered blacking out my character names, but whatever.

I really like healing; my top four characters are all ones that can heal, and have healing as their main spec (in the case of my priest it’s both specs). This makes me lean towards getting a Shaman because this would give me one of each healer 85+.

The Priest, Paladin, Warrior, Hunter, and Death Knight are all out of the question, because it’s really not worth it to me to waste this freebie on 5-10 levels. I’m also not really interested in the free profession if I chose a 60+ character because levelling professions are easier than characters, and I’m not exactly hurting for professions either.

The other options is a Warlock, which I think I would have some fun with, but it would be my first pure DPS class I’ve ever played at max level. I don’t know if it’s really my thing, when I OS DPS I’m pretty bad at it.

Just remember if you level through dungeons that pure DPS have much longer queues than tanks or healers. This means boosting a pure DPS class can be advantageous. Pick the Lock or the Mage. Which ever you like better. Like pets? Go Lock. Don’t like pets? Go Mage.
